Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have the same number of protons with different numbers of neutrons, hence they have different masses. the natural abundance of these elements vary, we are given percentages in which these isotopes exist. average atomic mass is the weighted average atomic mass of an atom relative to 1/12th the mass of a C-12 atom. the average atomic mass can be calculated by taking the sum of the masses of isotopes multiplied by the respective abundance percentage average atomic mass = (235.044 amu x 80%) + (<span>238.051 amu x 20%) = 188.04 + 47.61 = 235.65 amu the average atomic mass is 235.65 amu </span>
Hi mom, I’m having troubles with my teachers. They are cruel to me and I cannot concentrate. I think if we changed schools it would be much better. Thank you mom.
